Things that make you go........hmmmmmm?

I have a question for all my loyal readers out there and for anyone else who's interested in answering. I have been asking this question randomly whenever it I think about it, for the last few years. Many of the answers are similar but I have been surprised before, so I'm just curious on where my readers stand. Here goes.....

If you could be any animal in the world ( living or extinct), what would it be and why?


My answer would be a New World monkey, no specific species as long as it's a New World monkey. I say this because New World monkeys, those native to South America, are the only types of monkeys to have a prehensile tail, used as a fifth limb to hold onto branches. I would like to be a monkey because they live in my favourite place, the tropical rainforest, they get to swing through the trees and eat fruit all day. They live a relatively carefree existence with few natural predators.

  1. If I could be any animal, I think I would choose the dodo...specifically Pickwick from jasper Fforde's Thursday Next series :o)

    I'd love to see a live dodo and I enjoy Fforde's books. To be Pickwick would answer the question 'which animal' while allowing me to explore some of my favourite fiction from the inside.

    Plus, Pickwick eats tons of marshmallows...where's the bad in that?!
